I’m not sure why El Lay breakfasts are so darn expensive.  Coffee, two eggs over-easy, potatoes and bacon for $12?  Call me, er, frugal, but the place around the corner from my house serves an amazing breakfast for $5 with totally great, friendly waitresses -(I’m not being sexist, it’s always a waitress) – and pictures of Annie Oakley and Wild Bill Hickok on the wall.  Wait, what am I whining about?  I loved my California weekend.  I got to hang with awesome friends, eat great food, check out the old ‘hood, enjoy an afternoon on Vermont, and cruise Laurel Canyon with the windows down, among other things.  I shoulda said something to Katherine Heigl to make her feel better about the opening weekend of Killers while I had the chance, though.
